[0001] This application relates to commonly assigned, copending PCT Application Serial No. ______ (Docket No. 95996DPS), filed ______, entitled: “MULTICOLOR ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PRINT ENGINE” and U.S. application Ser. No. ______ (Docket No. 96004DPS), filed ______, entitled: “MULTIPASS ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PRINT ENGINE” each hereby incorporated by reference.FIELD OF INVENTION
[0002] This invention relates to an electrophotographic print engine. More specifically, this invention describes an apparatus capable of printing images using a multi development station.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] In order to produce a print using electrophotographic means, a primary imaging member, also referred to as a photoreceptor or a photoconductor, is first uniformly charged. An electrostatic latent image is then formed by image-wise exposing the charged using known methods such as an optical exposure system, an LED array, or a laser scanner. The primary imaging m...
